Dark Delta [Haiku]

sun sets upon
the river delta:
then pitch black night.

Shade [Haiku]

summer day from shade:
time attunes to floating
clouds and ducks.

Late Autumn [Haiku]

late Autumn: 
the last few leaves
refuse to fall.

Stone Monolith [Haiku]

stone monolith
rises above the jungle
like a fortress.

Claustrophobic [Haiku]

carpenter bee
crawls into clock vine bloom;
freefalls into flight.

Sky Fire [Haiku]

sunset flames,
glowing like hot coals;
cools to darkness.

Crown Flower [Haiku]

crown flower buds
begin to split, but only one
takes the first peek.

Mountain Crumbles [Haiku]

once a mountain,
now just boulders; someday
not a hill will remain.

White on White [Haiku]

angular granite:
softened by snowfall,
erased by cloud.

Too Close for Comfort? [Haiku]

baboon onshore
grooms infant as hippo
glides past in water.
